Graduate Proseminar in World Music Studies
MUSC 510 FA

This course is offered every fall as a required course for all first-year music MA students. It stresses broader integration and interaction between the students and music faculty members through the participation of a number of faculty guest speakers, coordinated by the instructor of the course. The course exposes the students to our extraordinarily diversified music faculty's specialites at the outset of their graduate study at Wesleyan, providing opportunities for students to learn about the faculty's performance, composition, or research projects and ideas, as well as problems/issues they encounter. It also includes sessions on writing and advanced library and on-line research skills. Hence, this proseminar prepares music graduate students with both knowledge of the rich intellectual resources in the department and the necessary research skills for initiating their MA thesis projects. When it is possible, the course will be organized in conjunction with the departmental colloquium sessions.

MAJOR READINGS

To be announced. In addition, each faculty guest speaker assigns the class the appropriate listening and/or reading materials.

EXAMINATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS
